Some interesting results indeed

[H1Rolla]

In the short 9 months i have owned my car i have spent approx...

$12 000

Way to much, haha

[zzrolla]

People seem to spend more on Bling, Rice and Ice than performance...

There isn't a single stock component left in my other cars motor ;)

The block isn't even stock anymore.

It's hard for me to gauge exactly how much i have spent on this car as nearly all the work on my car I have done in house and parts/items have been purchased at trade prices etc etc.

My guess is roughly for all parts and labour it would come to about $15000 give or take a little.

Well my other cars have soaked up a hell of a lot more than that and neither of them are on the road at the moment.

Kombi spendage roughly $30 000 including purchase price.

Civic spendage roughly $20 000 including purchase price.

So the Sportivo is looking not too bad at the moment.... well if i add the purchase price to the 15k..... :o :o

I DON'T WANT TO KNOW AND MY WIFE DOESN'T NEED TO KNOW EITHER (LOOKING AT YOU AZZA AND NORTHY).......
